What is the best tool to look at Internal Links?
-
My site has on average 220 internal links a page largely due to how the site is built ie every page shows every link via the menu system, which isnt great, but from what i have read there isnt much i can do about it.
However, this week 3 pages jumped to over 400 links and the home page over 500 internal links, GWT will only show me 200 of them, Is there a tool that i can use that will list all my internal links, so i can find out why this has happened?
Thanks

Hi Ash,
Like Tom, I am a huge fan of Screaming Frog.
Another option is Xenu's Link Sleuth which is completely free, while the Screaming Frog free version has a 500 URI crawl limit.
I personally think it is worth it to purchase the licensed version of Screaming Frog... but I also need to for my site.
Good luck.
Mike

Losing referrer data on http link that redirects to an https site when on an https site. Is this typical or is something else going on here?
I am trying to resolve a referral data issue. Our client noticed that their referrals from one of their sites to another had dropped to almost nothing from being their top referrer. The referring site SiteA which is an HTTPs site, held a link to SiteB, which is also an HTTPs site, so there should be no loss, however the link to SiteB on SiteA had the HTTP protocol. When we changed the link to the HTTPs protocol, the referrals started flowing in. Is this typical? If the 301 redirect is properly in place for SiteB, why would we lose the referral data?

Link Research Tools
Is anyone else here a user of Link Research Tools? I recently completed a Link Detox for my sites. However, it is saying that links from high quality press release sites are deadly and should be removed. They are also saying the same about the links from the Yellow Pages. Obviously I know these tools are automated, but does anyone know why they are showing these links as 'deadly' and should be removed? I have tried contacting LRT about this issue but am yet to receive a reply.

I only have 65 extrernal links after 8 months of link building?
I am currently employing an SEO consultant who has been carrying out link building for the past 8 months. having signed up to SEOmoz i noticed that i only have 65 external links when my competitors have 13,000+. My consultant gave me a list of over 300 links he has putting into place but SEOmoz only shows 65. What I am concerned about is why I have only so few and where the others have gone? And how do i catch up to my competitors and put a proper (better) strategy in place.

Count of links
I am using free link API to get total number of internal links,
Reporting & Analytics | | Ravi_Pathak
external links, follow links and no follow links by using *
http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/links/* url. I have given following attributes along with the url as, SourceCols=4 TargetCols=4 Scope=page_to_page Sort=page_authority Limit=1000 Filter=nofollow By implementing this, I am getting array for each filter and by counting
array size, I can get the count of total links. This is a long procedure and seomoz link API is taking a long response time. Is there any way by which I can get the total number of link for each
filter directly ? Or is there any other alternative ?0 -
Does an internal link inside an iframe result in a bounce?
We built a landing page with a wufoo form. Inside the wufoo form is a link going to another page on our website. We are wondering if clicking on that link will result in a bounce since it is in an iframe. We are using google analytics.
